Passing drug test

Anyone have any experience with how long it takes for opiates, specifically oxycodone to leave the system to pass a drug test? In other words, going for a new job and needing to pass a pre-employment screen.

I hope I don't sound ignorant in my post.

being clean is the best you can do. Drink plenty of water and high fiber foods. Good luck

None of this answers my question. But thanks for the responses. I'm specifically talking about being tested.

It depends how long taking them and how much it can vary considerably from person to person

If you read through my post history you'll realize I know exactly what this forum is. I'm not trying to "one up" a drug test. I'm asking a legitimate question. I'm not asking how to fool a drug test I'm saying how long do stuff stay in your system.
I think you are automatically assuming something and I don't appreciate you insinuations.

I'm asking as someone who has a problem but is still trying to make a living, work, etc.

Are you trying to stay clean? I'd recommend a program to help with that.

I can see this was a mistake. The purpose was to ask how long after getting clean would you be safe if you were applying for a job. I guess people here interpreted it the wrong way. Sorry about that, I regret posting this thread.
